"Of course."
"Oh, what fun!" cried Sue. "We'll have a ride, after all, Bunny."
"Yes," agreed her brother. "Thank you, Mr. Reinberg."
The dry-goods man found a house in which there was a telephone, and he
was soon talking to Mrs. Brown in her home. He told her just what had
happened; how, almost by accident, he had taken Bunny and Sue off in his
automobile. Then he asked if he might give them a longer ride, and bring
them home later.
"Your mother says I may," Mr. Reinberg said, when he came back to the
automobile, in which Bunny and Sue were waiting. "I'll take you on to
Wayville."
"Our Uncle Henry lives there," Bunny told the dry-goods man.
"Well, I don't know that I shall have time to take you to see him, but
we'll have a ride."
"We 'most went to Uncle Henry's once," said Sue. "On a trolley car, only
Splash couldn't come, and we had to go back and we got lost and--and--"
"Splash found the way home for us," finished Bunny, for Sue was out of
breath.
"Well, we won't get lost this time," Mr. Reinberg said.
